Great excitement prevails at Batavia,
Illinois, over panther which, tits sup
posed, escaped from menagerie, and is
now roaming about in the woods near
the place. 1t has killed dozen dogs,
two cows, and exhumed several bodies
from the East Side Cemetery, at Batavia.
1t has been seen by several persons, and
man named Huntley shot at it as it was
providing about his house. Large hunt
ing parties are in search of it, but thus
far without success.

COMPARISON SoLICITED.-A wise discrimi-
nation should be exercised by all who take
medicine. The proprletors OF Hoods Sarsa-
parilla solicit a careful comparison Of this
icines, being confident that the peculiar mer-
It's OF Hoods Sarsaparilla are so apparent
that the people will unhesitatingly prefer 1t
to any other preparation. Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is not mixture OF molasses and few
inert roots and herbs, but II is peculiar con-
centrated extract Of the best Alternative and
blood-purifying remedies of the vegetable
kingdom. The enormous sales OF Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and the wonderful cures effect
ed, prove even more than has been claimed
for this medicine. II you are sick the best
medicine is none too good. Therefore, take
Hoods Sarsaparilla.

MASTER WORKMAN POwDERLY has an
nounced his determination to support
the party in favor of tariff revision next
wear. The head of the Knights of Labor
sees for himself that the present iniqui'
tous tariff is designed to benefit the rich
manufacturer, and that the laborer gets
more harm than good from it. The high
protectionists have had the wool over
the eyes of the people for a long time,
but the tariff reformeIs OF the Demo-
cratic party are slowly though surely
undoing the wrong.

U.efuI aud Hur,ruI Medicines.

There is a certain class Of remedies for con-
stipatlon absolutely useless. There are boluses
and potions made in great part Of podophyl.
lin, aloes rhubarb, gamboge, and other worth
less ingredients. The damage they do to the
stomachs OF those who use them is incalcula-
BILE. They evacuate the bowels, 1t Is true, but
always do so violently and profusely, and be-
sides, grippe the bowels. Their effect is to
weaken both them and the stomach. Better
far to use the agreeable and salutary aperient,
Hostetter's stomach Bitters, the laxative
effect of which is never preceded by pain, or
accompanied by a convulsive, violent action
of the bowels. On the contrary, IL invigorates
those organs, the stomach and the entire sys-
tenn. AS means of curing and preventing
malarial fevers, no medicine can compare
with 1t, and IL remedies nervous debility,
rheumatism, kidney and bladder inactivity,
and other inorganic ailments.

advocated the pensioning of ex-Confed-

A Great Victory
A Terrible Case Of Scrofula
Cured by
Hoods SarsapariIIa

"In the winter Of 1879 was attacked with
Scrofula in one Of the most aggravating forms.
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and aroundmy neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. It Is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years Of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, was worse than ever.
Finally, on the Recommendation Of W. J.
Huntley, druggist, Of Lockport, 1 was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparflla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous erupticns have
disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
beautifully less do not know what 1t may
have done for others, but i do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an

any one who doubts it.n CHARLES A ROB

WE were quite alarmed the other day
when we read the remarkable admission
in the Charlestown Democrat that
"There are those who can produce bet
ter articles than we THE Democrat
publish" We feared that the already
painfully modest and unassuming edi-
tor was getting too modest and too I'M
assuming to live. He sort of revived,
however, a little further on, when he
patronizingly advises candidates for
Congress and the Legislature to cut out
his editorials and preserve them for
future edification.

of twenty young men who competed for
a West Point cadetship at WestielG,
Mass, ten were rejected by the physi-

heart" brought on by cigarette-smok-
ing. They were unfit for West Point
service. And youth with tobacco
heart" is unfit for any occupation which
requires persistent, steady effort. To

Few persons year ago would have
imagined that the Baltimore s. Ohio
Railroad Company was anything but a
solid, wealthy, almost financially i'm
pregnable corporation. Yet the devel-

to be in an almost bankrupted condition.
With a floating debt of $4,000 900, it
has been obliged, in order to liquidate
that debt, to place itself in the hands of
a syndicate who will manage 1t to suit
themselves. Many lessons can be learn

Is that a man who begins at the top of

BLOOMINGTON, April 4.-The Poor Asylum was
totally destroyed by fire here to-day, and, while
the department was still at this fire, which is a
mile from the business part of town, another
alarm was sounded, and Ballenbacher Bros
large hub and spoke factory was found TO be in
flames. Before the steamer could reach the
spot the flames had gained such headway
that little was saved, the factory and stock be-
ing nearly total loss. While this FIRE was
raging, another alarm was sounded. The
roof of a large tenement house near the public
square was found to be in flames, and the popu-
lace was almost panie-strie ken, but men with
buckets mounted the roof and succeeded in ex
tinguishing the flames. There were thirty odd
inmates in the Poor Asylum, all of whom were
rescued without injury, and are now quartered
in sheds at the fair grounds near here. This
fire was caused by an old woman setting fire tC
her room while building a blazing fire in the
stove. The asylum was fully covered by insur
anee in the Phoenix, OF Hartford; Phoenix, oi
